Tonsillar herniation is the movement of brain tissue from one intracranial compartment to another, specifically the movement of the cerebellar tonsils through the foramen magnum. This is a life-threatening and time-critical pathology that may be reversible with emergent surgical intervention and medical management. This activity reviews the evaluation and treatment of tonsillar herniation and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in the care of patients with this condition.
